I reviewed this patch believe its in quite good shape, thanks Stephen.
Then I tested it on a x86_32 8 cpus machine and got no obvious problem.

Hopefully, next rcu_bh (or whatever name is used) will permit us
to switch back to pure RCU in 2.6.31
oprofile snapshot of a tbench session, with light iptables rules.
(4 rules in INPUT chain, 3 rules on OUTPUT)
xt_info_rdlock_bh() uses 0.6786 % of cpu
xt_info_rdunlock_bh() uses 0.1743 % of cpu
CPU: Core 2, speed 3000.77 MHz (estimated)
Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Clock cycles when not halted) with a unit mask of 0x00 (Unhalted core cycles) count 100000
